Description Forest 2016-11-05 16:56:26 UTC
When I submit a new bug report containing a python traceback in the bug description, bugzilla fails, producing an error 500 page.

When I submit the same report without the traceback, it works.
Comment 1 Forest 2016-11-05 16:56:55 UTC
Example traceback that triggered the problem earlier today:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  • File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/meld/diffmap.py", line 138 in do_draw
    width, height)
cairo.Error: invalid value (typically too big) for the size of the input (surface, pattern, etc.)

Comment 2 Forest 2016-11-05 16:59:37 UTC
Looks like bugzilla is doing some special parsing of stack traces. I'm going post the same one again, this time with indentation, to see if the result looks different in the posted comment.

    Example traceback:

    Traceback (most recent call last):
  • File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/meld/diffmap.py", line 138 in do_draw
    width, height)     cairo.Error: invalid value (typically too big) for the size of the input (surface, pattern, etc.)
